Notes from this morning’s BA72 AUH-LHR. There’s a new folded menu card.
Me : “Oooh, it’s the new service !”
Cabin crew : “Don’t hold your breath ...”
Being an 02:05 departure, the first service is a hot snack - a ‘chicken shawarma’, which was a turdish shape and had the texture of a giant deep fried spring roll.
Without any dip or salad, it was as dry as the desert sand.
Breakfast service :
CC : “Omelette or frittata ?”
Me : “Which omelette ? There are two different omelette dishes on the menu.”
CC : < blank look > “The omelette option has meat. The frittata is vegetarian.”
Me : “I’ll have the omelette”
Under the foil was the cheeese omelette, harra potato, marinated tomato and lamb merged sausage, which all tasted the same as any other airline breakfast. A couple of the potatoes had a nice crunch though.
Also on the tray was butter for the roll, apricot jam, fruit, yoghurt, apple danish and bottled water.
Pity. I fancied the other omelette. Wonder what became of that ?
